mother's day gift guide

mother’s day is quickly approaching (may 10) and if you want to order something to send to your mom - now is the time to do it.

i’ve been thinking of some fun lil gifts to send to all the moms in our lives with hopes to still make them feel special even while quarantined. keep reading for some ways to brighten up your moms day even if you aren’t able to spend it with her!

self care basket.

there’s no better time than quarantine to start working on yourself! this is a great idea for all moms - especially those with little kids running around who have no time to focus on them. in this basket i would put facial rollers w/ gua sha, ALL the masks (hand masks, face masks, foot masks), a dermaplanning tool, some nose strips and a hot/cold eye mask. for a little something extra, throw in some nail kits too. maybe even add a bottle of wine and a cute glass for the full experience!

cozy collection.

because who doesn’t love to get cozy at home? there’s nothing like some soft slippers, a big blanket and a night on the couch! you can also throw in some comfy sweats or a sherpa. and don’t forget to add a candle or diffuser with some essential oils! it’s the perfect gift for those moms who just need to rest.

at home kits.

whether you can spend mother’s day with your mom or not - it would be a fun idea to put together an at home kit for you to do together or over zoom. some of my favorite ideas below.

drink kit: whatever your mom’s drink of choice is - this is such a fun idea to be able to ‘cheers’ to that motherly figure in your life! some ideas could be a martini kit, margarita kit or mimosa kit. you can gather everything you need for a drink, drop it off at your mom’s house and do a virtual happy hour together!

dinner kit: have a favorite meal that you and your mom can make together? grab the ingredients and get in the kitchen! if you can’t be together, hop on zoom and enjoy the meal together.

baking kit: you can always bake some goodies and gift them to your mom but i think it’s a little more fun if you can bake together! pick your favorite sweet, grab the ingredients and head over to your moms to enjoy some freshly baked goods together.

electronics.

i know that i have been spending a lot of time on my electronics whether it’s my ipad, laptop, kindle or TV. now is the perfect time to give your mom the gadget that she has been dying for! obviously more on the expensive side but a gift card to the apple store / amazon can also go a long way. another idea would to gift her a subscription to a streaming service like HBO, hulu, netflix, etc.

memory lane.

missing the good old days? gift your mom an electronic picture frame and add all of your favorite photos and videos for her to see everyday!

want to do something similar without breaking the bank? put together a fun slideshow with your favorite songs playing in the background and send it to her to watch. you can even go through some old photos and put together a scrapbook of your favorite memories.

working on that fitness.

wanna help your mom stay motivated while working out at home? there are so many ways you can help! buy her some bands, ankle weights, dumbbells, a yoga mat and a subscription to some kick ass home workout videos!

eco-friendly moms.

maybe your mom loves to garden and could use some new tools or maybe she could use some reusable products like: a water bottle, tote bag or some metal straws. whatever it may be - you can put together a little basket of all your mom’s eco-friendly wants and needs!

so here are some fun little gift ideas for the special women in your life! happy (almost) mother’s day to all the strong, wonderful moms out there!
